In this episode of Moving Into the Future, host Jack Macejka, Vice President of National Accounts at The Advance Group, sits down with Jason Aster, Managing Director at KBA Lease Services, to pull back the curtain on one of commercial real estate’s most misunderstood services: lease auditing. They discuss how tenants—many unknowingly—overpay millions over the life of their leases, and how KBA’s tech-forward approach is reshaping the way large portfolios identify, correct, and prevent billing errors. From capital expenditures to clever interpretations buried in dense lease language, Jason breaks down how even “airtight” deals can leak dollars—and how KBA's proprietary AI tools are tightening the screws. Plus, Jack and Jason dive into how AI is transforming unstructured financial data into actionable dashboards, the future of automation in lease management, and why “public defender for tenants” might be the perfect job description.

In this episode of Let's Combinate, Subhi Saadeh—an ISO 13485 certified lead auditor, CQA, and CQE—dives into the evolving role of auditing in the medical device and pharmaceutical industries. He reflects on his journey to becoming a Certified Quality Auditor and asks a timely question: in the age of AI, will audits—and auditors—still matter? Subhi outlines what separates good auditors from great ones, shares lessons from his own audit experiences, and breaks down how AI might streamline parts of the audit process. But he makes a clear case: while AI can assist, it can't replace the critical thinking, real-time risk judgment, and systems awareness that human auditors bring.

Government Accountability Office auditors are examining the “digital footprint” left by DOGE in Treasury Department, Social Security Administration and Office of Personnel Management IT systems, the watchdog's leader told Congress on Tuesday. Testifying before the Senate Appropriations Legislative Branch Subcommittee, Comptroller General Gene Dodaro said GAO auditors are looking into what data was accessed by the Elon Musk underlings during their forays into agency IT systems, and determining if any changes were made. “We're looking at the digital footprint within each of these major systems across government,” Dodaro said, naming OPM, SSA and Treasury specifically. “So we'll have a better idea about what impact DOGE's access has had on the data systems, and whether there's been any information input into the system or taken out of the system.” The General Services Administration unveiled a new initiative Tuesday that it says is aimed at helping agencies gain easier access to IT tools and shifting how the federal government approaches procurement. The OneGov Strategy is meant to modernize how the government buys goods and services and calls for more direct engagement with Original Equipment Manufacturers. The GSA said in a press release that OEMs “will benefit from a more direct and predictable engagement model.” Taxpayers, meanwhile, will benefit from a “smarter, more secure federal IT enterprise” under the strategy, the GSA said. While agencies have, in the past, bought software through resellers, the GSA believes this approach prioritizes direct relationships for enhanced outcomes. Stephen Ehikian, the agency's acting administrator, called the OneGov Strategy “a bold step forward” in GSA's “mission to be responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars. It's about acting as one — aligning to our scale, standards and security to meet the needs of today's government while prepping for the future.” The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

Among the various audit types, the Targeted Probe and Educate (TPE) audit is unlike most audits because of its unique emphasis on themes, such as education and remediation, rather than punitive measures. Designed to address common billing errors and improve claim accuracy, TPE audits aim to foster a collaborative relationship between Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) and healthcare providers.Medicare's Targeted Probe and Educate (TPE) program is an opportunity for providers to improve compliance and billing practices through education and guidance. By understanding how the program works and taking proactive steps to address potential issues, providers can navigate the TPE process effectively and avoid escalated scrutiny. Ultimately, the TPE program underscores the importance of accurate billing and proper documentation in maintaining a strong, compliant relationship with Medicare.

Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) audits of hospitals play a key role in ensuring compliance with 340B rules and regulations. In this episode, Dave Lacknauth, executive director of pharmacy services at Broward Health in Fort. Lauderdale, Fla., joins us to discuss the importance of taking a proactive, comprehensive approach to audit readiness with the goal of ensuring clean audit results. Compliance protects 340B accessBeing prepared for HRSA audits serves a crucial function that ultimately benefits the patients whom hospitals serve, Lacknauth explains. Maintaining the integrity of 340B means protecting access to 340B savings that hospitals can invest in crucial care for community members that need it. Continuous audit readinessLacknauth discusses how Broward Health maintains audit readiness by conducting internal audits, bringing in external consultants, and identifying areas of opportunity for improvement. A robust system of internal reviews means that when HRSA comes knocking, Broward Health is already prepared. This was evident after a recent audit of one of the system's hospitals that resulted in zero recommendations for improvement.Organization, resources, transparency are keyPreparing for audits requires a health system to invest time and resources, but Lacknauth stresses that these investments pay off. Engaging a comprehensive team from various departments in the audit readiness process allows for a health system to have the appropriate level of responsiveness and transparency during a HRSA audit.Resources:Nebraska Is 12th State To Enact Contract Pharmacy ProtectionsIdaho Becomes Fourth State To Mandate 340B Reports From Hospitals

An increase in crackdowns has paid dividends for Inland Revenue. It collected $600 million in extra taxes from 3,600 audits between July and December last year – 50% more audits than the same time period in 2023. Half of the money came from fewer than 10 audits. Deloitte Tax Partner Robyn Walker told Mike Hosking it shows the investment at the last budget was worth it, New Zealand getting $11 for every dollar invested. She says because of a previous slowdown in audits there's probably a lot of fruit to pick. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the last HER Style Podcast episode, I shared a handful of revelations from my most recent closet audit. We all know the value in cleaning out the clutter and eliminating the excess. So why is it that we often avoid auditing our wardrobes altogether?   What I've seen over the years is a lot of fear around taking on this task. We decide it's overwhelming and going to take way too much time to sift through everything. We worry that even though we might feel like we have nothing to wear, giving away a lot of our clothing will leave us even more literally with nothing to wear. We face analysis paralysis and doubt our instincts about what to keep and let go of.   I totally understand why you might be putting this off. But what if I told you there was an easier way? You don't have to dedicate hours on end to this step and you need to get rid of far less than you think you do. In fact, there are 4 things I don't want you to remove from your wardrobe at all!   In today's episode, I'm going to surprise you with a short list of things you've been letting go of too soon.

No matter the approach one might take for debridement, wound care continues to be an attractive source for audits – they inevitably arise and fester.

Subscriber-only episodeEver wondered where your workday really goes? That nagging feeling that time is slipping away despite your busy schedule might be more than just a feeling. Through a revealing time audit using tracking software, I discovered the uncomfortable truth about my productivity—I wasn't nearly as focused as I thought. The data showed hours disappearing into social media scrolling, aimless email checking, and other digital distractions that masqueraded as work. This reality check became the catalyst for transforming my entire approach to time management and business productivity.Taking a cue from my teaching background, I developed a structured block scheduling system that revolutionized my workday. By assigning specific tasks to designated time periods—just like a school timetable with classes, breaks, and transitions—I created a framework that eliminated decision fatigue and minimized task-switching. More importantly, I learned to match high-value activities with my peak energy periods, scheduling creative work when my mind is sharpest and administrative tasks when precision matters most.The results speak for themselves. This methodical approach to time management hasn't just improved my productivity—it's given me the clarity and consistency needed to achieve meaningful business goals.

If change is inevitable, why are we typically so bad at managing it? As businesses navigate digital shifts, mergers, and AI advancements, one crucial group often gets sidelined: employees. Communicators can play a much larger role in managing these key stakeholders during organizational upheaval - and strategically guide organizations through any transition. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle welcomes change communications veteran and communications audit expert Lynn Zimmerman, CEO and chief strategist of Swing Communication, to dissect change communications in today's dynamic business world. With a career spanning over 25 years, Lynn has been instrumental in over 40 acquisitions and integrations, ensuring that employees remain at the heart of transformation. In her conversation with Dan, she delivers insights into conducting effective communication audits, the significance of employee-focused strategies during transformative periods, and the impact of AI on internal communications. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the differences between internal and change communications, learn strategies for conducting thorough communication audits, and discover how AI can enhance change communications efforts. The discussion also highlights the evolving role of communicators in steering organizational change and offers techniques for engaging employees as vital stakeholders during transitions. Whether you're a communications professional, business leader, or simply curious about organizational change dynamics, this episode is packed with actionable insights. Lynn's expertise, combined with Dan's probing questions, creates a compelling conversation on navigating corporate transformation while keeping employees informed, engaged, and aligned. Listen in and hear about...  Understanding the distinct roles of change communicators and change managers. The importance of communicators being part of the core project team. How AI tools enhance the communication audit process. Conducting communication audits to uncover organizational practices. Strategies for smaller organizations to implement "pulse audits." Aligning company values with leadership actions for change readiness. Why change should have a defined start, middle, and end.   Notable Quotes On the Role of Communicators in Change: "I've always said that one of our superpowers as communicators is that curiosity, the inquisitiveness and the kind of relentless interrogation that we bring to certain projects, hopefully in a good way, where we ask the questions that nobody thinks of or that other people think might be, oh, I don't want to ask a stupid question." - Dan Nestle [12:21 - 12:52] On the Evolution of Change Communication: "I think the recognition that change is important is a big step. And so it's evolving. I worked on a project and this was this corporate acquisition, the first time I was involved in change. And I was working with these project managers who weren't familiar. You know, this was a new process." - Lynn Zimmerman [29:57 → 30:15] On the Importance of Employee Communication: "It's also what a communicator needs to do, which is to speak to your audience in the manner in which they. They prefer to be spoken to. And if you're speaking their language from the get go, you will absolutely have much more success with your message." - Dan Nestle [32:13 - 32:53] The Power of Communication Audits: "I know I have one client that we did an audit a couple years ago and she still carries around the report in her, her work bag because it has so much information that helps her think about how to better communicate with, with her employees." - Lynn Zimmerman [38:29 → 38:46] On the Importance of Values in Change Management: "If you only pull your values out when you're going through a major change, then it's going to confuse people. Or if you throw away your values when you announce a major change, they're going to see that as well and they're not going to believe you." - Lynn Zimmerman [1:01:44 → 1:01:57] The Future of Change Communication: "I think change needs to change. And because change is not going away, and I don't really like the whole change is constant, you know, that's. That's not how change works. Change needs to have a start, middle and end, or else you're just creating chaos within your organization and uncertainty." - Lynn Zimmerman [59:28 → 59:47] On the Role of Internal Communications in Change: "Internal comms has a really big role in change, is making sure that those, that those company values are lived and that they're understood and that people know the vision of the company, what we're trying to accomplish." - Lynn Zimmerman [1:02:05 → 1:02:17] The Challenge for Internal Communications Teams: "In the defense of internal, calm comms folks, it's, they're busy. These people are way too busy. And you know, it's a absolutely. Traditionally underfunded, we're understaffed. And so even adding some of those things are hard. But if you can make the time to do those things, it will help you create a stronger case for doing something new." - Lynn Zimmerman [1:08:46 → 1:09:10]   Resources and Links Dan Nestle Inquisitive Communications | Website The Trending Communicator | Website Communications Trends from Trending Communicators | Dan Nestle's Substack Dan Nestle | LinkedIn Dan Nestle | Twitter/X Lynn Zimmerman Swing Communication | Website Communication Audit Toolkit - Demystifying Communication Audits Lynn Zimmerman | LinkedIn   Timestamped key moments from this episode (as generated by Fireflies.ai)

A new report from the Treasury Inspector General reveals that the IRS has deployed 68 AI projects, 30 of which are already active, with a main focus on millionaire tax cases. The AI systems are now also targeting real estate investors, specifically those earning over $400,000 annually or with partnerships exceeding $10 million in assets. These systems detect discrepancies by cross-referencing tax returns with financial statements, identifying patterns, and focusing on partnership structures and rapid portfolio growth. The video highlights the importance of proper entity structuring, proactive documentation, and strategic tax planning to minimize audit risks. A guide for IRS Audit Defense is provided to help investors prepare and protect themselves from potential audits triggered by these AI systems.

During the Biden administration, we witnessed one of the most blatant public violations of the First Amendment in U.S. history. Simply voicing a different opinion became a crime, with examples of persecution based on free speech including J6ers, Tina Peters, and others. This ideology—that free speech must be restricted—has not faded since the election of Donald Trump, with Europe remaining one of the biggest proponents of speech restrictions. Freedom of speech must be protected at all costs, and the United States should not align itself with any country that does not champion these beliefs. Joe Biggs joins us to share how his rights were personally violated and how free speech today only applies if you agree with the status quo. Next up: more DOGE updates, audits, and government cuts. This week is going to be big. All this and more on today's Untamed!
